Altmetrics for Research Outputs Measurement and Scholarly Information Management

Description:

Dissemination is an important activity in the scholarly research lifecycle. Subsequently, tracking the impact of research outputs on new media sources has gained focus in the last few years. In this context, Altmetrics refers to novel metrics, often based on social media for measuring the impact of scholarly objects such as research papers, source code, or datasets. Altmetrics compliment traditional metrics, such as bibliometrics, by offering novel data points for gaining a more holistic understanding of the outreach of research outputs. This increased awareness could help researchers and organizations to gauge their performance and understand the outreach and impact of their research. Altmetrics is related to diverse research areas such as informetrics, social network analysis, scholarly communication, digital libraries, and information retrieval. This first workshop on Altmetrics for Research Outputs Measurement and Scholarly Information Management (AROSIM 2018) aims to address a range of opportunities, emerging tools and methods, along with other discussion topics in the fields of altmetrics, non-traditional metrics, and related areas. This workshop aims to gain a multi-disciplinary perspective on this new and cutting-edge research area.
